<Anchor> As you
just saw, there will be several investigations into this accident, and there is also an analysis that more casualties could have been caused depending on the location of the crashed vehicle.
Next, KNN reporter Lee Tae-hoon delivers.
<Reporter> A
taxi comes out of the mart wall and hits the road first.
The crash site was only a meter away from traffic waiting for a signal across the center line.
If the vehicle flew a little further, it would have almost hit the cars waiting for a signal in the opposite lane.
The road where the taxi crashed was also empty at the time of the crash.
A car passed the accident site by about 15 seconds.
The crashing vehicle was captured by the car's rear camera.
[Nayoung Kim / Driver at the scene of the accident: I was very surprised to think that an accident could have occurred at the scene if it had passed 10 or 15 seconds a little later...
.] When the
crashed taxi caught fire, workers at a nearby shopping mall immediately extinguished it, and the fire did not spread to other vehicles.
As you can see, the taxi accident occurred so badly that the engine compartment was hard to recognize.
You can see how great the impact of the accident was at the time.
As the taxi broke through the wall, large fragments of the wall also hit the vehicles.
A block fell onto a vehicle the family was riding in, including a 2-year-old child, but was not seriously injured.
[Kim Dandelion / Accident Witness: The baby cried so much that it bled, so I wiped it with a wet tissue.]
Amidst the unfortunate victims of an accident like lightning in broad daylight, the citizens who managed to avoid the accident swept their hearts in surprise.
